I have just released a new unofficial patch for Daibanchou Big Bang Age.Install the normal translation patch first. Save games should still be compatible with the translation patch.Note: Make sure that the setting "Reduce CPU Usage while active" is enabled in System40's settings.

Changes made:Fixed the 100% CPU usage problem, now it only uses 100% CPU during heavy calculations, or uncommon transitions.Upgraded sound engine to support .OGG files (instead of .WAV files)Supports video files instead of bloated .ALK files that are filled with .JPEG files for each frame.Main .AIN file is now compressed and cleaned up, now 2.2MB instead of over 18MB.

Media Files: 65.4 MBContains the full game soundtrack converted to .OGG files, and the OP and ED in .mp4 format.https://mega.co.nz/#!kEBjzRBB!XGdL2Le0i ... zDcx94FXyw(warning: Filenames may be wrong if you don't run Winrar under Japanese locale)After installing this, you may delete 大番長OP.alk and 大番長ED.alk.Total disk savings: about 850MB!

Nitty gritty details:System40.exe upgraded to 1.31ALDLoader.dll upgraded to 1.07Sys42VM.dll upgraded to 2.34Added in DecodeOgg.dll and KiwiSoundEngine.dllAdded in PlayMovie.dllMade code patches to GLEffectCopy.dll to no longer use 100% CPU usage during most transitions.Fixed bugs in SurfaceFactory.dll that made it incompatible with newer versions of System40.exe48 functions in the game have had code changes made to them.

I could could do it.Also, as far as I know, it's just a DirectShow media player, so even soft-subs would work just like in Windows Media Player.

Should I make it English or Romeji? I can't guarantee the quality of my translation though

Could someone who has the files upload them to another file host? MEGA links here doesnt work for me, the files were probably removed.Thanks!
